- Please be as specific as possible about the version of Steve Dossick's
- RabbitHelp (R) you are using, your hardware configuration, and your operating
- system (including version). If possible, include a test case for the problem.
-
- From our 1.0 experience, and the fact that Windows '95 itself is still under
- continuing development, we learned that it is impossible for us to provide
- support for beta releases. There will be no Technical Support (including
- discussion of bugs, compatibility, or how-do-I-get it to work) for 1.1, by
- any media (email, telephone, etc), until the final release 1.1 is published.
-
- Unfortunately we will not be able to answer questions you put in your feedback.
-
- If you report a bug we don't know about, and if we need specific information to
- get the bug fixed, we'll send you email.
